Young Kings take home Green Mountain Cup Title

The 2013 Young Kings take home the Championship at the Cwench Next Gen Series Green Mountain Cup. 

NCCA D1 National Champion Coach, Rand Pecknold leads the 2013 Young Kings to the title at the Cwench Next Gen Series Green Mountain Cup earlier this spring.  

Pecknold has been on the bench for the Young Kings in numerous events this spring, most recently at the Boston Showdown in May where the team lost a close game in the Championship.  This time, Pecknold captured the title, leading the team to a 3-2 win in the Championship over Toronto Pro Hockey.

The Young Kings got out to an early lead in the game, only to see Pro Hockey tie it on an extended Power-Play late in regulation.  With just over two minutes remaining in regulation, Joey DiGaetano powered through on a defensive face-off and sprung free for a breakaway goal to lead the team to the Championship.

​It was a great finish to a strong tournament performance for Pecknold's Kings.  

The following players earned All Tournament Team Honors for the Young Kings:

• Rex Pecknold - Forward
